Welcome Video

Hi, My name is Weston Lott. I grew up in Berea, Ohio, and I attended The University of Akron in Akron, Ohio, where I lived for ten years. After college, I worked in the corporate world as a graphic designer for eight years. I first came to know the ministry of Casas por Cristo when I went on a mission trip in December, 2014 to Ciudad Juárez, México. After taking part in my second mission trip with Casas in the Dominican Republic, I was hooked on serving the Lord in this way. I applied and was accepted as a summer intern for Casas in the DR shortly after. That summer changed my life! I am extremely excited to take the gifts that God has given me in design and construction to serve His kingdom with Casas por Cristo.

Hello! We are the Duggers and we serve as Field Manager and Field Coordinator in the Dominican Republic. Ian first encountered Casas at the International Conference on Missions. He went on to do two internships in Mexico before taking on his full-time job here in the DR. Alyssa always knew she wanted to serve God cross-culturally, and after meeting Ian at college (where they both got their degrees in missions) and marrying him in 2020, she was so excited to become a part the Casas ministry.

Saturnina Cabrera Samuel
Pastor of: Iglesia Juan 14:6

I am Saturnina Cabrera. I started my journey as a pastor in 2009, in the small community of Barrero. I have a beautiful family of seven! At the time God called me to Barrero, I was a leader at a church in a different town and did not want to leave. However, I understood that there was a great need in this community. There was a time my husband had to leave home and look for a job, and I remained faithful and stayed in Barrero.

Hi, my name is Aimee Johnson.  I am from Calgary, Canada and this will be my second time interning with Casas por Cristo.  I went on my first trip when I was nine years old to Mexico with my family and have since had other opportunities in missions in a few Latin-American countries.  It has expanded my perspective and grown my heart for other cultures and how God is at work.  Recently, I have been experiencing God's kindness and faithfulness in my life, and I look forward to how He will move and what I will learn this summer.

Hi. My name is Anna Killen, and I grew up on a farm near Leonard, Missouri. I went on a Casas trip in the summer of 2016 when I was 17 years old. Afterward, I could feel God calling me to be an intern for Casas. I am now going into my sophomore year at the University of Missouri - Columbia and am working towards a Business degree. I cannot wait for God to work through me this summer and am looking forward to this opportunity to serve and to get to know others.
